Topic: RE: 2 week liquid diet before moms Dec 28th RNY
THANKS! This is great info and I know my mom will appreciate your mindset of going into this with the intention of sticking with it, but if she's really struggling and has to eat something, to make it high protein (no carb). I believe this is her thinking already, but it's good to know that she's not the only one in this mindset. :-)
THANKS!!!
THANKS!!!

My surgery is this Monday. I have a 10 day liquid diet. And it is all liquids-- no foods. Have i cheated? YEP! LOL! This is kicking my butt. But i have not cheated terribly. One day i had some tuna and today i had a piece of chicken breast. SO far i have lost 5 pounds. Been on this diet since Friday. I would say that she needs to go in to it with the mind set that she is going to stick to it. It will be very very hard, but she can do it. And if she does slip up..it's okay.. We have problems with eating.. that's why we need WLS (that's my theory anyway). But the important thing is if she does slip to pull herself back up and start over. It really does get easier after a couple of days.

Another thing added to increase my stress level.....At the pre-op appt, my b/p was high.
The Dr said they would not do my surgery unless I got my b/p down....She told me to do some deep breathing and gave me an added b/p pill.
I can't help being extremely nervous!
I have NOT lost any weight and I am on only 5 Carnation Breakfst per day with broth and popsickles. It is so weird to me that I am not eating ANYTHING and not losing a pound.
I am glad weight loss is not a requirement for me...
Yes, I want to get this over with.....I am hoping CMAS gets this off my mind for a week.

Topic: RE: New to this site!
Your day should be done by the time you get this. I hope all went well and you are doing great! I am into my 2nd week of liquid diet. I hate it. Have turned most of the cooking over to my husband. It's getting easier but sometimes certain things just smell so good lol. I have lost 13lbs so far with just liquids. Dr. wants 5 more by Tues. Seems weird to know I only have 5 more days to go!!
Its really hard to know my babys first Christmas will be spent among relatives instead of home with us, but I wanted to get this so over with. He wont even remember it so its just my own guilt. My 2nd wedding anniversy is New years eve. Won't be doing much celebrating this year with that either lol. I just am thankful that because of this surgery I will be around to see many more occasions than just these few.
Hope you are feeling better soon. Post and let us know how you are.
